Sleep Well, Brandeis
(11/12/19 11:00am)
Here’s a challenge for you: Ask any Brandeis student what they need more of. Their answers may range from hours in the day to a lot more coffee, and maybe some will just say money, but it seems to be the case that most could use an extra hour or two at night, even if they don’t think so. During “Sleep Week” this past week, organizations ranging from the Department of Community Service to the Brandeis Mountain Club held activities promoting the benefits of sleep, why we need it and why we should take it a lot more seriously than we currently do. “Sleep Week” events included free candy from Community Service, yoga classes and a campus-wide pajama day.
Bias, Bye!
(11/12/19 11:00am)
“None of us are free from unconscious bias,” Rachel Blau ’20 said. Blau is the former tournament director for the Brandeis Mock Trial team, and one of the brains behind the new anti-bias training that the team developed for their tournament judges and for judges around the country. Every year for the past 14 years, Brandeis has hosted a two-day, four-round Mock Trial tournament, planned and run entirely by students. Last year, when Blau and her co-director, Mayan Kleiman ’20, began planning the tournament, they realized they had the power to address this pervasive issue facing mock trial participants.

Life in a Suitcase: Fish
(11/05/19 11:00am)
Fish Wang ’23, who moved to the United States from China this past June, had been encouraged to study abroad at some point in his academic career. Wang grew up in what he describes as an “atypical Asian family” that gave him a lot of freedom in choosing what to do with his life. Wang’s parents first asked him whether he wanted to study abroad in grade nine, and they decided as a family that he would be completing his higher education outside of China. Wang spoke English and Mandarin, so he looked at universities in English-speaking countries. After much consideration, he decided to attend a school in the United States, a country he perceived to be vibrant, diverse and vivid.
